Is China mentioned in the Bible? The "SINITE" referred to in Genesis 10:17 is where the "SINO-" (China) prefix came from. MAGOG became MOGGULS, nasalized into MONGOLS. Today we call them MANCHU who rule China. Their ancient designations, as given in the article in Chambers' Encyclopedia, were MOKO and GEOUGEN. Thus we know that the MANDARINS are MAGOG. They live in MANCHURIA and MONGOLIA. According to the Ruysch World Map (1508 edition of Ptolemy) both "GOG" and "MAGOG" (Ez. 38; Rev. 20:7-8) are found in N. CHINA. Arab writers referred to the Great Wall of CHINA as the "wall of al MAGOG" (rabbi Aaron Marcus, Kesseth HaSofer p.112a). The 9th century Anglo-Saxon Map of the World places "GOG ET MAGOG" in E. Asia (Encyc. Brit.17:638b). Idrisi's map of 1154 A.D. places "MAJUJ and YAJUJ" in E. Siberia (17:640b).

In the Apocalypse we find a "great RED DRAGON" with "seven heads and ten horns" (12:3). He is actually called "the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world" (12:9) by means of false religions such as Confucianism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism and Communism. The DRAGON was the symbol of the Chinese emperor for many dynasties. During the Qing dynasty, the Azure DRAGON was featured on the first Chinese national flag. It was featured shortly again on the Twelve Symbols national emblem, which was used during the Republic of China, from 1913 to 1928. We commonly refer to Communist China as "RED" China today. The RED DRAGON is sometimes used in the West as a national emblem of China.

666 Means "Impressive" Not Satanic in China

The RED DRAGON known as Satan will deceive billions of people (Rev. 12:9) into taking the mark of the beast and worshipping his image (Revelation 13). This is being beta-tested in China. As it is in China, so it will be in America. In China many shoppers don't use cash anymore. They use QR codes (shown above) and smart phones. Participation in China's digital society is contingent upon remaining loyal and obedient to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party). The right-hand vow of swearing allegiance is taken at age 6, age 14 and age 18 where Chinese children "sell their souls". If anyone refuses to make these three vows or put on the red scarf at school, he will be expelled from school or at least he will be considered an outcast in school with no rights or benefits like other students. Jaywalking, smoking on trains, buying too many video games, or professing Christianity can all lower your social Credit rating. If your Social Credit Score gets too low, you can be banned from buying plane tickets, renting a house, or getting a loan. You won't be able to buy property. Your child won't be able to go to private school. You could lose your job, be put in prison, or even enrolled into forced labor or forced organ transplants. Nearly 15 million people have already been prevented from travelling. A low Social Credit rating will result in one's WeChat or Alipay accounts being locked. Therefore, "worship" is mandatory and Mao Zedong is worshipped as a god in China. The CCP has thus created a system where if you are deemed disloyal, you cannot receive money or spend money. Without the Mark (your right hand raised in an oath) you can neither buy nor sell. There is no real due process to fight the score or clear your name, so you remain on the "List of Untrustworthy People." However, poor rural farmers without bank accounts still use money and are not under as much surveillance as city-dwellers.

In China, 666 is a slang term for "impressive" or "fantastic," roughly the equivalent of calling something "cool" in the west. It's a pun based on the fact that the Chinese word for 6, pronounced "liu," sounds similar to a word that means "incredible." You are almost guaranteed to see the number 666 posted somewhere in China. People will pay lots of money to have 666 in their phone number or license plate because they think that it is very lucky. Even though there are many Christians in China, 666 is still considered very lucky in China. So, if a politician rose in China who could somehow make 666 a symbol for his name, he'd have instant star appeal. Remarkably, Mao Tse Tung is one such name: Mao is 40 + 1 + 6 = 47; Tse is 90 + 60 + 10 = 160; and Tung is 400 + 6 + 50 + 3 = 459. Therefore, 47 + 160 + 459 = 666 using Hebrew letters and their numeric values.

China's ANTI-CHRISTIAN Persecution

There are estimated to be 60 million Christians in China. That is only one half of one percent of the population. Few countries boast of more continuous persecution of Christians; and even today such persecution is rampant. The U.S. State Department is blind to the human rights violations of Christians throughout the world, especially in China. Chinese Christians know what it is like to be persecuted and to live under the constant threat of persecution. They listen to Christian radio broadcasts out of Hong Kong even though they live behind the bamboo curtain in China. They have two kinds of churches. The approved or mainline churches that agree not to teach the forbidden doctrines of the inerrancy of Scripture and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ; and the underground or house churches that teach the whole Bible until they are discovered and imprisoned. It is in these house churches where thousands are coming to Christ each week. The "most dangerous" message on the Internet is the "Second Advent of Christ". The soon return of Christ is the message China's thought-police most want to censor out. In fact, in many areas the police are registering modems and even fax machines in order to keep the end-times message of Christ's return from being circulated. Chinese Christians believe passionately that Christ is coming again "in this generation."

The DRAGON knows he must stop this Apostolic message of hope. The DRAGON persecutes the house churches because he is terrified of the end-times gospel they preach. This message liberates the people from bondage to their control and so it has to be denounced as "anti-revolutionary" superstition. Christians are consistently forbidden the right to do any public evangelism of any kind. Private worship is reluctantly permitted but gospel preaching is banned. Directives to the state-controlled churches warn pastors not to preach the message of Revelation. Pastors in congregations of the "Three Self Patriotic movement" skip liturgical readings about the Second Coming of Christ such as Hebrews 9:28 and Rev. 19 and 22:20-21. Sunday School teachers are not allowed to discuss the "day of the Lord" predicted in both the Old and New Testaments. The Olivet Discourse, recorded in three of the four Gospels is forbidden (the most important outline of prophecy in Scripture). Many Chinese hymns of advent, missions, judgment, and the millennial reign of Christ are no longer sung in registered Chinese churches. Such music isn't politically correct. Online Bibles are banned.

"Red Dawn" Invasion From California Ports

In 1996, Bill Clinton took millions of dollars in illegal campaign donations for himself and his party in a desperate gamble to buy the election. Much of it came from the Chinese communist government. What concessions were promised the communist leaders of China in return? Renewal of Most Favored Nation (MFN) trading status, which the President asked for and received in 1997, was obviously one objective. Historically using state money as bribery is an accepted path to obtaining national communists objectives. Even though 55 witnesses fled the country, pleading the Fifth Amendment, or refusing to testify before congress it is common knowledge that special favors were promised for that early cash that bought the TV ads that guaranteed his reelection in 1996.

In 1996, Clinton and his top aides met with Long Beach officials to urge the city to make the deal with the Chinese Ocean Shipping Company (COSCO) , which promises to infuse fresh money into the cash-strapped local economy. This cost nearly 18,000 American jobs, but the Chinese would rent the port facility for $14 million per year. The huge 600-ship merchant fleet has long been suspected of various illegal activities by U.S. authorities. In 1992 the Federal Maritime Commission fined COSCO $400,000 for providing illegal kickback in violation of the 1984 U.S. Shipping Act. In 1996, U.S. Custom's agents intercepted a shipment of 2,000 AK-47 assault rifles aboard the COSCO ship Empress Phoenix, which was docked at Oakland, Cal. The weapons were shipped by the Poly Technologies Group and were intended for sale to street gangs in Los Angeles. The main problem with allowing the Chinese to operate a port terminal in the defense-rich environment of Long Beach involves national security.

Since 1997, Chinese officials have bribed and bought off senior American government officials, in particular the Clinton administration. Multiple military sources around the country have quietly warned about the growing menace posed by the buildup of Chinese Communist forces in California ports now controlled by the Chinese.

The U.S. Navy was replaced by China's government-owned COSCO company to help speed their enormous imports into the United States. Our balance of payments with them already shows a deficit of $50 billion dollars and is expected to go as high as $70 or $100 billion, a tribute to the greed of American capitalists whose desire for profits exceeds their concern for the safety of our country.

Chinese forces embedded in American ports (e.g. Long Beach), who have entered the country in cargo ships, will attack key military bases in California. Chinese troops are also concentrated in Stockton and Sacramento. At the same time, 20,000 Chinese soldiers, who are embedded in the Sierra Madre Mexico will join forces with Latin American forces as they sweep northward through Mexico and will dramatically burst through the border and then fan out to the north, west and east. The American airbases that defend our country would be overrun by Chinese military personnel stationed at Cinta Solar energy farms (beachheads) located nearby. The RED DRAGON (Hydra China -- Rev. 18) may be prophesied to FIGHT and PERSECUTE "the woman" (Virgo America -- Rev. 18) and "make WAR with the remnant of her seed" (Rev. 12:7,13,17) for a total of SEVEN YEARS (Rev. 12:6 + Rev. 12:14). Perhaps one third of America falls under the DRAGON'S sway (Rev. 12:4).

"I am astonished that we would be providing COSCO, a known tool of the Chinese People's Liberation army, with a beachhead anywhere in California, but especially in Long Beach," said the Heritage Foundation's Asian expert, Richard Fisher. "I can't even begin to imagine the degree or amount of under-the-water, on-top-of-the-water and land-based surveillance that would be needed to ensure that COSCO did not use this port for intelligence gathering, insertion or recovery of agents, or other forms of espionage," Fisher said.

Rep. Gerald Solomon (R-NY), chairman of the house Rules Committee, urged Attorney General Janet Reno to appoint a special counsel to investigate the plan. "Everywhere we turn, we see China taking active measures to compromise, infiltrate, neutralize or otherwise undermine American economic and security interest," Solomon said. "Is this what China is getting in return for its big contributions to Clinton and DNC campaign coffers?"

A Chinese-American entrepreneur named Johnny Chung made more that 50 visits to the White House during Clinton's first term. Chung took six Chinese officials – one of whom was a COSCO adviser – into the White House in 1996.

Chung donated $366,000 to the Democrats during that period, including a $50,000 contribution he hand-delivered to Hillary Clinton's aide Margaret Williams at the White House, in violation of federal law. The money was later returned to Chung.

Chinese Military Bases Disguised as Cinta Solar Energy Farms

The solar energy deals transacted by Senator Harry Reid were done in conjunction with Chinese energy companies run by the Chinese military. All personnel manning these planned plants would be affiliated with the Chinese military. This includes the inland ports (e.g. Kansas City) which are controlled by the Chinese courtesy of the treasonous trade agreement we call NAFTA. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton gave tacit approval to, and participated in, these actions which had their origins prior to her tenure as Secretary of State. Cinta controls most of the solar energy farms in the West, especially in Sacremento and Stockton. Cinta is a front for the Chinese military invasion force. Virtually all of the employees at the solar energy farm are Chinese soldiers. California Governor, Jerry Brown, has included the Chinese and the Bank of China in the CALEXIT strategy meetings.

California is on the path to becoming its own nation controlled by the United Nations. California Governor Jerry Brown is leading the way. After Calexit, the UN will assume control over California. The Chinese are attempting to take over all of California's agricultural farm land. They need it for their population back home due to forced migration of Chinese farmers into urban ghost towns. Chinese nationals are buying up distressed California farms and ranches and the food is being sent to China. America is already facing serious food shortages due to the mass departure of farmers from the profession. This will plunge America into a great famine as food prices escalate which will cause economic collapse.

Whether this will be part of a UN force or blatant aggression of the Chinese, is unclear as yet.

The Bundy Ranch confrontation, along with many other unreported BLM land grabs on behalf of the Chinese are being carried out in preparation for a total resource hand off to the Chinese. Dave Hodges' sources in the military (see commonsenseshow.com) as well as independent researcher, Vicky Davis reveal that a series of international “inland ports” are being created in conjunction with known mineral rich areas in order to hand control of these areas to the Chinese. Further, the Chinese military will be stationed around these inland ports to ensure safety and security of the Chinese investment and its mining and geological personnel. The Chinese are doing this under the guise of creating solar energy, which indeed is being created. The Chinese military involvment will be the foothold of their invasion force. Further, solar zones are near planned international corridor highways (e.g. Canamex and NAFTA Super Highways) for easy transport of these soon-to-be mined mineral resources for shipping back to China. When the attack occurs, the American economy will be in chaos and the Chinese will be in the midst of acquiring vast mineral resources for which they have prepositioned their covert military assets in this country.

These Solar Energy Zones are appearing in multiple locations in such places as Southwestern Arizona, Barstow, CA., Victorville, CA., Colorado and Utah. These designated Solar Energy Zones have very similar variables in common. The debt compensation will consist of complete control of the solar industry and will be expanded to other energy sources (e.g. hydroelectric and nuclear power). This practice has been happening in Indian reservations as well. But in all cases, the Chinese miitary is involved in some fashion.

In addition to Paul Preston’s revelations about CALEXIT, he has stated that the inland ports of Stockton and Sacremento California are loaded with Chinese soldiers. Any invasion of America's Southwest underbelly would have to defeat American aircover. These solar energy farms are located adjacent or near American domestic airbases which could easily be compromised with the Chinese soldiers on hand. And these planned facilities are always located near known mineral rich resources buried underground and waiting to be mined. And this strategy is not limited to these Chinese Solar Energy Zones. China has acquired equity interests in American oil and natural gas through CNOOC and Sinopec (Wall Street Journal March 6, 2012). China has a one-third interest in energy and shale companies in Colorado, Louisiana, Michigan, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming.

Besieged in All Your Gates

China's leaders are among the most dedicated communists in the world. They are a ruthless group of elite gangsters who hate freedom and plan to conquer the world. America's leadership tries to appease these ruthless communist leaders. Liberal American leaders have never been able to deal successfully with communists. Only former President Ronald Reagan who regarded communists for what they are, "an evil empire," understood them. He dealt with diplomacy backed by force. That is why the Soviet Union finally collapsed.

The World Bank, which is controlled and financed by they Amercan Taxpayer, has financed the Chinese economy to the point that it is expected to challenge our own economy for world markets in ten to twenty years. The Chinese government bragged about the fact that they had obtained the highest loans from the World Bank of any country on earth. Twenty-two billion dollars! For several years they allowed American companies to buy twenty-five percent of corresponding companies in China (to gain capital). If you were to drive through Beijing you would be amazed to see the names of countless American companies that have affiliates in China. This of course has contributed to our enormous trade deficit that has provided China's untold billions to support her socialistic economy. Of the ten tallest building in the world, seven of them are in China!

Another strategic effort was their gaining a foothold in the Panama Canal area when the U.S. withdrew from that region before the turn of the century. By long term leases at each end of the canal they virtually control the shipping through the canal. Some military experts believe this could force the United States to have two separate Navy's, for no longer in emergencies could warships be sent to support our naval forces from one ocean to the other -- without China's permission. America is "a silly dove without sense" (Hos. 7:11) that "went after her lovers" (Hos. 2:13) and "pursues the EAST wind" (Hos. 12:1). We have even given the Chinese sensitive technology. "Aliens have devoured his strength, but he knows it not" (Hos. 7:9).

China has taken over strategic trade choke points and shipping facilities in Latin America and Mexico also. There Hutchison Whampoa Ltd., the huge Chinese shipping conglomerate (which also controls the ports on both ends of the Panama Canal) controls several major ports, including two ports in Ensenada as well as those in Manzanillo, Veracruz and Michoacan. Mexico's ports regulate a large proportion of goods that flow into the U.S. China had taken control of vital sea gates through which resources must travel into the U.S. -- the Panama Canal and Freeport, Bahamas. The Caribbean is now controlled by Chinese shipping. So is the South China Sea via the Spratly Islands. China is establishing a huge deep-water port in Gwadar, Pakistan, at the entrance to the Persian Gulf. Hong Kong was handed over to China on 30 June 1997. There is coming a time when America will be blockaded by its former trade partners: "They shall besiege you in all your gates until your high and fortified walls, in which you trust, come down throughout all your land; and they shall besiege you in all your gates throughout all your land which the Lord your God has given you" (Deut. 28:52).

One hundred eighty years ago Napoleon Bonapart said, "When China awakens, the world will tremble." China has awakened and with the world's largest population (1.42 billion people). Many observers recognize that within ten or at best twenty years China could very well threaten the entire world even more than the Soviet Union did just a decade ago. She already has the nuclear bomb and she has a delivery system that is the fear of every country in the Orient. She is trafficking in arms in a big way by buying them from Russia and any of the former impoverished satellite countries that will sell them and turning around and selling what they do not want to any of their oil rich allies that can afford them, like Iran, Iraq or even India.

China's aggressive demand for Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Sprately Islands proves they have a strategy to control all of Asia. Whoever controls the Spratelys not only controls the oil check points to the oil dependent countries of Asia like Japan, Taiwan, the Philippians – but Australia, Indonesia and Singapore – where 50% of the worlds population lives. Their claims to these almost uninhabitable islands are based on centuries old documents. They are probably more interested in the suspected rich oil fields under them than their location.
